Watch | US doctor delivers baby on flight from Taiwan

A US doctor returning from honeymoon ended up delivering a baby on an overseas flight when a fellow passenger went into early labor. On her way home to Los Angeles last week, Dr. Angelica Zen had been trying to catch a little sleep toward the end of her 14-hour connecting flight from Bali last week when she heard an announcement asking if there was a doctor or nurse on board. The woman was seated in the plane's first-class section, where the desks made it impossible to work, so Zen had her moved to the main cabin and placed on the floor. The flight attendants quickly pitched in, providing towels, blankets and makeshift instruments as fellow passengers recorded videos with their phones. This was her first unassisted delivery of a newborn baby, she had previously delivered two infants, both under the supervision of more experienced doctors. The China Air flight, which had departed from Taiwan, was diverted to Alaska. Mother and newborn daughter left for a hospital, and the flight continued on to Los Angeles. It's unclear if the birth, first reported by KABC-TV, occurred within a 12-mile radius of Alaska, which would make the baby a U.S. citizen.
